Memorial Upsets
Palestinians

Sydney/JTA — The Palestinians are
reportedly considering a Muslim
and Arab boycott of this summer's
Olympic Games in Australia because
of a memorial to the Israelis killed
in the 1972 Munich Olympics mas-
sacre.
The claim in the Palestinian publi-
cation Al Hayat al-Jadida of a boycott
over the memorial, which was dedicat-
ed in October, was subsequently
denied by the Palestinians' representa-
tive in Australia.
But the publicity given the
February report — which came as
Australian Prime Minister John
Howard and Palestinian Authority
President Yasser Arafat met in the
Gaza Strip two weeks ago — threw
the spotlight on Israel's security con-
cerns as preparations for the Games
begin.
Members of the Israeli Olympic
Committee visited Sydney last week
to discuss security arrangements for
Israeli athletes. The Games are sched-
uled to begin Sept. 15.
The Palestinian representative in
Australia, Ali Kazak, claimed there are
no plans at this stage for a boycott,
but that the Palestinians are demand-
ing the memorial be removed.
Kazak said that if the memorial
remains, there should also be memori-
als to the Olympians he claimed the
Israelis murdered in Lebanon and
elsewhere.
